London has been the epicentre for British COVID-19 cases

Sadiq Khan is the Mayor of London, the city which has more COVID-19 cases than any other in Britain. While the country has been placed into a state of lockdown to protect its citizens, some have put forward the idea that London itself be shut off from the rest of the country.

Khan spoke to JOE about congestion on the tube during a time when people are being urged to self isolate, the length of lockdown and whether the city could be shut off from the rest of the United Kingdom.
